Utterly mundane ramblings from a nobody with nothing important to say.

I went to Supanova yesterday. I have to say that it was a bit disappointing - I go essentially for books and comics but it is now overwhelmingly anime/cosplay/computer games. There's nothing wrong with any of those things, just not my interests.

Having said that, I did buy one thing - The Walking Dead Book 12 HC - from one of the few comic stalls that had a good range. Not going to give any spoilers away but I am stunned that the twelfth volume in a series can still have an ending that takes my breath away. So it was the only thing I bought but it was damn good!

As an additional bonus I dived into Cosmic Comics (right next door - so convenient!) and they had a hardback copy of The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor so I grabbed that too. Neither were what I went shopping for but both were good buys!

Having lost all of its writers after S1, Walking Dead has now lost showrunner Frank Darabont too, according to Rabid Doll. The sheer scale of changes in such a short time makes me nervous - Robert Kirkman is still there at least!

There's a good interview with Robert Kirkman at EW.com about progress-to-date on S2. It sounds like they are making some good progress - if we are going to see Hershel's farm, it should mean the prison isn't too far away either.

There will be two series of action figures according to ICv2, one based on the comics and one based on the TV series. I'm amused either way - I particularly like the Roamer with the ax, presumably Rick's, embedded in his head
